Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related GEO.176 Optimize Measures in Geometric Contexts skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Which strategy best fits this skill: choosing the design that optimizes a geometric measure under constraints?
APick the option with the largest single dimension before checking formulas.
BIdentify the constraint, compute the requested measure for feasible options, and choose the maximum or minimum requested.
CIgnore units when the numbers are easy to compare.
DChoose the shape that looks most symmetric even if it does not meet the constraint.
Solution & Explanation:The correct strategy is to use the constraint first, compute the relevant measure, and then compare only feasible options. Looking only at one dimension or ignoring units can lead to a non-optimal or invalid choice.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
When comparing options, one choice gives a larger area but violates a stated geometric constraint. Which conclusion is correct?
AReject it because optimization only compares feasible options.
BChoose it because the requested measure is larger.
CKeep it only if its perimeter is smaller.
DChoose it whenever the shape looks more symmetric.
Solution & Explanation:Optimization is only over feasible options. A choice with a larger area, volume, or other measure is not valid if it breaks a required constraint.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A rectangle must fit inside a circle of radius 12 units. Which dimensions give the greatest area among the choices?
A12 units by 20.7 units
B16 units by 16 units
C17 units by 17 units
D10 units by 21.8 units
Solution & Explanation:The rectangle diagonal must be at most 24. The 17 by 17 option has diagonal about 24.04, so it is not feasible. The feasible areas are about 248.4, 256, and 218, so 16 by 16 is greatest.
